We are no longer the only ELCA Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregation in Maine. Redeemer Lutheran Church in Bangor has joined us. As RIC churches we have endorsed a statement of welcome to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender persons into the full life and ministry of our congregations. Pastor Bill Barter and a delegation of St. Ansgar members traveled to Bangor this past Sunday to help celebrate. Congratulations to Redeemer on taking this faithful and affirming step!
